Tokyo Hamburger Hunt! There are plenty of Western wanna-be hamburger joints all around Tokyo so I called up some friends to have a Hamburger eating tour.
We all met in Shibuya around 10am and set out for our first destination...

#1 ARMS restaurant located on the west side of Yoyogi park had a very friendly atmosphere with friendly staff and a rather down home cooking style. The hamburgers came out quickly and the attention to service was subtle. Avocado burgers were highly recommended.

Let the feasting beginnnnnn!
Avocado Burger with fries 980 yen
The Day's Special. Celery and Honey Mustard Burger 1200 yen #2 The Great Burger (Shibuya) a few minutes walk from Meijingumae station, hidden around a corner from the main street.
With it's rustic atmosphere and extensive menu it is sure to please the younger generation who haunts this area of the city.
Gorgonzola Cheese Burger and Onion Rings. 1350yen
Although the atmosphere is nice and the retro decor is amusing I would have to warn people about the smokers! I found myself trapped at a table with two young chimney inhalers toking away like there was no cancer tomorrow! Bad for the taste buds!
Aside from a few unruly smokers I'd have to recommend the filling and thoughtful menu. he buns were especially tasty!
Gumbo Burger 1350yen
This upscale restaurant boasted it's pricey earthenware refrigerator with 10-year aged beef.

#3 Goro's Diner (Aoyama)
Nestled in a hard-to-find spot in upper Aoyama-not far from the Bell Commons. It has a large local following and we found ourselves lingering outside for out order. The restaurant only seats 10. We opted to take our orders out and eat at a local park.
